Show Project Two Thirty-Nine is a county-wide need, deserving county-wide support in the January 18 election. Your sheriff, charged with controlling crime in Utah County, is forced by lack of space in the County Building to operate without a prisoner "lineup" room, without proper prisoner interrogation and interview rooms, without a tactical squadroom, without a training room and without many other facilities he needs to do his job. Your county jail, an abandoned pump plant, is hopelessly crowded, hopelessly outdated. out-dated. It provides no facilities for segregating first-time young offenders from hardened harden-ed criminals, no facilities for rehabilitation of any kind, no facilities for training, no facilities for medical isolation (including drug-related infectious hepatitis.) fed WjQ3 Your county building, constructed in 1926, is similarly overcrowded due in part to a three-fold increase in county population since its construction. The offices of your county clerk, recorder, assessor, surveyor, treasurer and district court clerks, among others, are seriously overcrowded. There is only one jury room for three courts. In consultation with community leaders, professional consultants of the Federal Bureau Bu-reau of Prisons, state and municipal prison authorities, and community planners, your elected commissioners, following an exhaustive study reported extensively by the press, has recommended construction of a new facility designed to solve these problems. It would provide your sheriff with the tactical crime control facilities he needs, an adequate jail, and proper facilities for our courts and our county clerk. Construction of the new judicialsecurity building will, for the foreseeable future, provide adequate facilities for these functions, and will relieve the overcrowded conditions con-ditions in the existing county building. No tax increase is involved in the $4 million project, to be located immediately east of the existing county building. All that is needed is the consent of the voters to undertake a 20-year bonding program. Utah County, with no present bonded indebtedness, indebt-edness, and with one of the lowest mill levy rates in the state, has been pronounced in "excellent" condition to undertake such a bonding program by professional financial fin-ancial consultants. The $2.39 is an average per-resident yearly cost figure for the project, pro-ject, including interest charges. fecS Sin Your elected county commissioners, your sheriff, judges, county officers and a wide segment of the Utah County community strongly endorse this proposal and urge you to give it your full support by voting "Yes" on January 18. These Utah County citizens and scores of others fully support and endorse Project Two Thirty-Nine: Steven Hansen LeGrand Jarman Larry L. Francis Heber Wolsey Glade Gillman Clarence Robison Bruce R.
